Abstract. Purpose:To report the one-year outcome of photodynamic therapy with intravitreal ranibizumab for polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy(PCV). Cases and Method:This study was made on 25 eyes of 25 cases who received photodynamic therapy with intravitreal ranibizumab as the initial treatment for PCV. The series comprised 21 males and 4 females. The age ranged from 60 to 86 years,average 74 years. Outcome of treatment was evaluated with visual acuity(VA)and OCT findings as parameters. Results:VA before treatment averaged 0.2 as median value. Cases with VA of 0.2 or better showed reduced foveal retinal thickness and improved VA after one year. Cases with VA less than 0.2 showed reduced foveal retinal thickness and impaired VA after one year. Conclusion:Photodynamic therapy with intravitreal ranibizumab resulted in reduced foveal retinal thickness after one year. VA improved when it was better than 0.2 and deteriorated when it was worse than 0.2.
